Fisherman's Energy in New Jersey is a Bold New Step for America

Fisherman's Energy in New Jersey will be the first major offshore wind farm in the country to officially get hooked into a power grid.

The remarkable thing about Fisherman's Energy in New Jersey is that it's a project owned by a group of commercial fisherman, and its two state-approved plans will see over 70 wind turbines to be deployed between two projects spanning across nearly 2,100 acres of federal waters. Once fully operational, the two wind farms will generate an upwards of 350 megawatts between them, which is no small feat.
